释义 | bag (once / 132 pages) 1nv 2nv 3n 4n 5n 6n A bag is a lightweight, flexible container meant for carrying things. A grocery bag is one you bring home from the supermarket full of food. In some places the word sack is more common, but the handled container you get at the store when you buy something is usually called a bag. You can also refer to a suitcase, handbag, or purse as a bag. When the word is used as a verb, it can mean "to put in a bag," but also "to catch something." Figuratively, you can "be left holding the bag," which means to be swindled or cheated.
